Where to Buy JoYo’s Living Room

I wanted my place to look like Pinterest or from a magazine/catalog. Here’s where I got everything. I put the full price but usually I used coupons with Ebates so it was cheaper.

Remember, before you buy anything online, use Ebates! It’s free money (I’ve already racked $80 cash back), my sister and coworker love it, and it deposits monthly to my PayPal. Sign up for Ebates here via my referral link to get $10 for free. Whenever I forget to Ebates on a purchase, I get really sad.

Large Full Length Mirror

Mondrian Mirror ($600) from Design Within Reach. I got the 25.5 x 75.5 one. Looks like they sold out of that particular size but there are still other sizes available. It’s pretty heavy but sturdy and hangs well. 5/5 stars

White Cabinet

Kraal White Cabinet ($399) from Crate and Barrel. It’s just the right size and color. It’s high quality and is nicely weighted. I love that it came pre-built. No hassle and beautiful. The cabinet doors open easily and close securely. It’s not a super tight close but it does the job. It brightens up the room a lot. 5/5 stars

Gray Modern Couch

Empress Sectional by Modway in Light Gray ($1,123.99) from Home Deeco. The couch is super comfortable as it is beautiful. The assembly was very simple and easy. The contraption that keeps the two major pieces together is easily adjusted. It’s been six months and medium use and it seems to be working well; it hasn’t become too soft and has maintained it’s shape. It’s not stain-resistant but I’ve spilled water on it and cleaned up small messes easily. 5/5 stars

White Modern Wooden Leg Coffee Table

Saints Coffee Table ($249) from Urban Outfitters. It’s really easy to assemble and beautiful. Be careful not to get super glue on it. It’s sturdy and not too heavy so if you need to move it around, it’s okay. I ordered this table in July and it arrived in January – it took 6 months to reach me; shame on you Urban Outfitters. 5/5 stars

Large Gray and White Grid Floor Rug

Sutton Brooke Gray Area Rug by Artistic Weavers ($109) from Wayfair. It’s a very thin rug and man-made quality. The rug is definitely just $109 but it does the trick; the grid design doesn’t come off or smear. It’s pretty easy to clean and doesn’t shed. You will need a non-slip rug pad if you’ve got hardwood. 4/5 stars

Gray Fabric Modern Bench

Empress Tufted Fabric Bench by Modway ($177.49) from Overstock. Just like the Empress couch by Modway, this matching Modway bench is nice quality for the price. It is very cushy and durable and isn’t too heavy. It can be moved around easily and is good for sitting or as a footrest. 5/5 stars

Long Wooden Bench

60″ Weathered “Reclaimed look” Bench by I Love Living ($232.99) from Overstock. I bought this bench for $167 after coupons, I’m not sure why it’s selling for $232.99 now – maybe because it’s just such an excellent bench. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it. It’s rustic yet still clean and pristine. I think you might get a small splinter if you run your hands across it but if you’re just moving it around the house, you won’t. It’s a pretty finished product and super light weight. 5/5 stars.

Green Leaf Accent Pillow

Assembly Home Crewel Palms Pillow ($49) from Urban Outfitters. I got these pillows and they didn’t look like expected online. I love them now but I’ve gotten used to them and they do their jobs of sitting there and looking pretty. The palm pattern is much darker and more woven than I thought; the background of the pillow is more ivory/yellowish than white. 4/5 stars.

Gray Throw Blanket

Gray Pietra Throw by Plazatex ($24.99) from zulily. It’s 100% acrylic and soft and thin. It keeps you warm if your temp is slightly below room temp ideal but it’s definitely not for freezing temps. It does the job of covering your feet when watching from television. It’s cheap and a value product; it’s not high quality but for $25 bucks and acrylic, I never expected it to be. 4/5 stars.

Gray Geometric Accent Pillow

Gray Quilted Chambray Throw Pillow ($32.99 each) from zulily. It’s a pretty flat pillow but it does the job. It doesn’t pill and is thick outside fabric but it comes pre-shrunk and never really puffs out. 4/5 stars.

White Marble C Table

Smart Marble Top C Table ($149) from CB2. It’s a very heavy table as it’s real marble. It’s beautiful and easy to assemble. The top just sits on the bottom silver rack/legs. There isn’t anything holding the marble top to the bottom except the sheer heavy/weight of the marble so if someone is strong enough to tip the marble off, it can come off. I don’t think that happens easily as there is rubber grips to keep the marble to the racks (like an adhesive). 5/5 stars

White Modern TV Console

Christo 55.25″ TV Stand ($201.99) by Corrigan Studio from Wayfair. It took me forever to build and it was difficult to do so. I ended up buying an electric drill to put it together. It’s a gorgeous piece and I love it; it holds my 50 inch LCD television snugly and perfectly. Everything about it is awesome except that if you build it badly, the drawers won’t close properly so some of my drawers have some gaps. It would have been 5/5 stars if it came pre-built but I built it and it was hard so 3.5/5 stars.

Fire Escape Shelf Decor

Large Storage Shelf by Three Hands ($69) from Gilt. So, it is a brown color – made to look distressed, antique, and dangerous-dirty-alley-with-a-sewer-nearby-rustic. I wanted it white so it took me three hours to do it but I painted my shelf white. 5/5 stars.

Floor Lamp

Coat Rack

Minimalist Black Legged Floor Lamp

61.25″ Tripod Floor Lamp by Varick Gallery ($64.99) from All Modern. It’s a sturdy floor lamp that is wide but it works. Easy to assemble. The lamp shade color is more yellow (I don’t know if it’s because of my dimmable LED bulb) when I turn the lamp on. The lamp shade is white when it’s off but since it’s yellow when on, I have to give it 4/5 stars.

Small Artificial Plants

Silver Frames with White Mat

White 12-Pair Shoe Racks

12-Pair Shoe Organizer ($39.99 each) from The Container Store. 4/5 stars. The shoe racks are awesome except they are cheap so there are little buttons on the outside that fall off that are kinda annoying but not a big deal.
